Resurge

I recently wrote a blog post about the new NAS I built myself and why I didn’t choose for a RPI 4. https://jeroenpelgrims.com/diy-nas/

I think it terms of price it won’t be much more expensive than an RPI NAS, but you’ll get more performance and stability.

If you don’t care about power usage and/or connecting stuff through USB you can also buy some older hardware instead.

I wonder why this is still limited in time?
Is this still in some kind of test phase or something?

Yeah, using a 9 year old work laptop as my home server. Then with the surging energy prices last year I decided to switch out that laptop with a raspberry pi 4 as server.

Conclusion: I now have a laptop and a RPI running 24/7 🤦‍♂️
